I think it's key that I never see any kind of comparative behavior. Does Amazon do this, does Facebook do this, do private platforms do this? How does this compare to tracking done by apps? Based on my experience and knowledge, Google falls on the ethical side of the spectrum among its peers.

I get ads from Microsoft now (in app in some cases, other free services). I know this is a Mac/Linux heavy forum, but I would also love to see how this tracks with Windows telemetry (to the point made about security). I am sure that every Windows 10 install has higher fidelity fingerprinting sent with telemetry.

What has changed is how easily people can be manipulated on social media and how they can be programmatically orchestrated with much less effort than before 2000-2005.
> or let the car take over at low speeds

Except arguably that's when the car is least effective! That is when pedestrians walk out or vans reverse with the wrong kind of shiny paintwork. Reaction time is less important at low speeds vs effective and accurate processing.

Actively driving results in my attention being engaged, all the time. Passively letting the car drive will 100% reduce my engagement, and when the car fails I will not notice. And sure, for now it's my decision, until it becomes mandatory on new cars alongside automatic breaking etc...
But a record keyword isn't valid where you've written it there. So isn't it still an identifier?
Right now I am working with a React app that is even more striking - how little it does with so much code. Though I am starting to see the trick. Keep making wrappers that only reference other wrappers.
I still have my original HP-15C from 1987, along with two SwissMicros DM-15L (I had also purchased the official HP reedition HP-15C LE, but one was stolen from work in a burglary, and I resold the other one at a tidy profit, the DM-15L is much better). I also have the official HP-15C iPhone app. And a HP-48GX, HP-33S, HP-35S, DM-42L.

To be frank, it's the only one of my HP calculators I can remember how to program, it's extremely simple, unlike newer models.

HP reedited the 15C manual for the limited edition:

This seems like a cut-and-dry case of getting caught in monopolistic behavior. The code is right there. The Chrome codebase has special features for Google’s own web properties.

While there are a few DSL that won the war, like CSS or SQL, it is very unlikely that your DSL will prove worth it. 99% of the time, what you need is a good high level library/API to deal with the problem with your current technology.

Here is why:

First, you need to design it properly, and most devs are not good language designers. The chances your DSL is going to be good is very low.

Second, unless you are incredibly talented and have little constraints, you will not even remotely provide 1% of the tooling existing languages already have for free. I've seen so many DSL without basic syntax highlighting nor linter it's not even funny, but you need much more to be productive with a new language. Even if you are using macros and claim to be able to use the tooling for the main language you come from, stop a second and think about the last time you had fun debugging a complicated macro magic.

Third you need to test it and document it. Do you even do it properly for your regular code? It takes time and resources. A lot of it. Which could be better spend on the project, or on the library/API you should be writing about.

Fourth, what about training? Because you can hire somebody for language X. But for your DSL, you'll need to train them.

Then of course, you plan to support it for as long as it's used. Right? Right?

If I recall correctly, it's because the proposal[1] was last presented to committee in March 2018[2], and since then it's been essentially deadlocked as the committee members can't agree upon an "f#" style operator vs a "hack" style operator vs a "smart mix" of the two. Personally, I hate placeholder sigils and magic "context" variables (and hope they have no place in JS), so a simple "left operand becomes first argument in call to right operand" is all I'd really want.

That's malarkey. Tied is not exclusively used to imply a "contractual relationship," and that's (if anything) a minority-usage of the idiom of tied to/with.
Yep. And so many of the apps are useless if you're not a system admin.

So in that sense, having too many highly specialized (or low quality) apps can also be a turn off because it just confuses people.
> People assume that even at networking, social gatherings, or speed dating events. Doesn't matter what their initial impression is as you can change their later impression.

They literally wrote "cold approach," so no, this does imply approaching strangers in random situations.

It implies tying people in an unwanted conversation and then trying to leverage inevitable anxiety to get them to say something personal.

I too respond friendly to potential axe murderers. Angry axe murderers are more likely to axe murder you.

Seriously, though, there are _multiple_ red lights for abusive and exploitative behaviour in that advice. Yes, it _will_ work, abusive behaviour often works. But also, if you ever meet someone like that - or if you try it on someone with life experience that taught them _both_ what abuse and respect look like, they'll most likely smile, say something safe, and then leave to warn others about you.

I sure would.

youtube. Find out how to translate a term you are interested in to the target language and search that term. You will find a ton of videos of someone in your target language doing something of interest to you. For example "Weld" in Spanish is "Soldar" - throw that into the search box and I get plenty of interesting videos of people teaching how to weld, which is a topic I'm interested in so I enjoy watching them and I have some idea of what they must be talking about. (Of course some of them are giving bad advice, but I'm there to learn the language...) Don't forget to look at the related videos from the videos you watch to branch out topics.

You need to find your own topic of interest, but it is a great way to learn from native speakers as they would speak.

TLDR: We don't have a full solution that models flight.

I used an HP41 for many years but it eventually died and I didn't really use an engineering calculator enough any longer to justify either repairing it or picking one up on eBay. I really liked the ergonomics and, although I have an emulator on my iPhone, it's not the same without the physical keys.

I did pick up a 28 at one point but never really bonded with it.
During my plane flights I passed the time rediscovering the equations of lift.

The physical intuition I’ve found, is for plane flight, the plane must move faster in the direction parallel to the ground than the time it takes for those air molecules under the plane to move away and deform around the wing at some average velocity. In this manner, the plane can push off those air molecules as they’re unable to move out of the way quick enough to escape the force. Similar behavior to skipping a stone on water. For lift, you apply torque on the wing by changing the angle of attack. This also leads to some interesting ideas on wind.

wouldn't this be true any time an English language keyword is added to a language?
Programming is somewhat unique in the size and complexity of the structures expert practitioners have to hold and maintain. But only somewhat. It would be certainly be interesting to compare with other professionals with similar years of experience.
I think part of doubt has been caused by the blind spot we had on the Soviets. Gorbachov was the first to admit there were large biochemical facilities in the USSR with the ability to manufacture advanced weapons. This miscalculation by Western governments has not been advertised while having a significant effect on their confidence to judge adversaries.
Incredibly confusing UI. We found using something like Trello was simpler and cheaper.

The best way to describe Asana from a product perspective would be “just because it’s complicated doesn’t mean it’s good”
Yup. Visual pattern matching is very strong in programming skills.
This is my question as well. Additionally, I've wondered if there are non-explicit behaviors of the browser that are used for fingerprinting.
I've tried using Asana for several months, and I don't really understand how it's better than any other competing product out there? The web UI is slow and it's definitely not cheap. Is there anything about it that's "10x"?
I don't see it in Brave either

Why do people still dredge up Google's historical "don't be evil"? It's not been applicable for half a decade now, and even in 2015 when it was officially removed from the last company documents, it was already a dead phrase.

Google had already cornered the market back in 2012, when it surpassed every other browser, with an absolute majority dominance (>50% market share) achieved way back in 2015.

Google has been in control for a long time now.
It sounds like it's the people around you doing sous vide wrong and you're actually doing it correctly(by virtue of searing the steak). I've never heard anyone suggest eating a sous vide steak without searing it or using a torch to brown it, render the fat, etc. A sous vide steak should still taste at least halfway decent without searing because of the amount of salt and seasoning used in the process.

Your viewpoint is totally valid, though I still encourage people to give it a try for themselves. They don't even need a circulator the first time they do it, although I do think they're worth the money. A lot of restaurants actually sous vide their steaks before searing them, so if someone's sous vide steak is coming out terrible then I suspect something really went wrong in the process. Either not enough salt and seasoning was used(sous vide calls for a lot of salt), or they didn't properly sear the steak.
They're called doubleshot key caps. The better mechanical keyboards also use this method. The HP-15C and others in that line were exceptionally well made, with the PCB for the keyboard being ultrasonically welded for rigidity.
I've used Gousto on and off for years, great variety of recipes and never disappointed -it actually works out not very expensive per meal if you order the 4-people package, though you need some organizing to cook/freeze the extra meals in time.

The keywords you refer to in your link are all "classic" keywords. The last one that was added was "assert" with Java 1.4, which broke a lot of code. And made people realize that adding new "classic" keywords was a bad idea.

Now, Java only adds contextual keywords. Which are basically a sequence of Java letters that are tokenized as a keyword in certain contexts but as an identifier in all other contexts. var, record, inline, module, ect. are examples hereof.

Learn how you can lower your CO2 foot print: Get used to using a train instead of a plane. Use public transportation instead of your car. Use a bike more often.

Learn about the thermal insulation of your house and how to improve it.
This reminds me of a technology from a couple of decades ago that seemed to disappear: wearable computer monitors. What ever happened to those?

Basically, you wore this thing like eyeglasses on your head, and it had a small arm that extended in front of your eye (but a little below it). When you looked down, it appeared like a computer monitor was hovering in front of you. The very early models were 320x200 resolution in monochrome (red on black), but I tried one at a trade show in 2000 that I think was 800x600 in VGA color, which at the time was pretty decent. I'm surprised these never got more popular; they would be great for laptop computers: you could have total privacy in your viewing (unlike a normal screen), and with improvements in the technology you could potentially "see" a much larger screen than a normal laptop has.

Does anyone else remember these?

3-4 minutes per side is insufficient to raise a thick steak to 125 degrees (rare). Below 125 is "Blue", aka raw. Which can be fine as well, but I wouldn't call it a rare steak.

I've seen such steaks (I don't have sous vide myself), and they look like the perfect rare done steak. A nice pink shade throughout, with a beautiful crust.
I miss it when it's not there.

It's a pretty long read and could have done with some precedent.
Not the original commenter, but for me, several things made me despise it:

* No way of entering code blocks renders the product completely useless for technical teams. (JIRA also makes it particularly complicated with their "code block" element)

* The clunkiness of the heavy-weight JavaScript frontend is inducing a very negative feeling the moment I think about having to open Asana.

* The user interface breaks commonly established UX patterns: Middle click on a card doesn't open the task in a new window, as all other clickable things in a browser suggest. Cross-referencing two tickets is completely impossible (besides cloning the tab and opening two separate tasks in both)

What about an app by some permanent federal election commission? Several countries have a Supreme Electoral Court, which is independent of political parties.

For instance, in Costa Rica (3.4 million voters) we just elected mayors nationwide and received trustworthy results within a couple of hours (reported using a party-independent app).

Caucuses are also run by the Supreme Electoral Court. Kind of an Election-as-a-service.

Of course you could self host your podcast audio files, but if your podcast is popular you are going to run in to issues with concurrent downloads eventually.

Paid podcast hosting just makes it where you don't have to worry about a CDN, concurrent downloads, submitting to iTunes/Spotify.

If you're just getting started self hosting is probably ok, but I would look at going with paid hosting once you gain a following.

I do not have a podcast but I hear great things about transistor.fm.

You can host unlimited podcasts so there wouldn't be a storage issue.

Tiers are based on downloads per month. (That's expected to pay for bandwidth)

Good luck with your podcast.

It's also supposed to be derivative at first, I think. The poker game between Data and Picard is nearly exclusively derivative. But it's setting up a platform to jump from. I mean, I hope other elements aren't too derivative, but it seems unfair to criticize the first episode for it. The second one seems to depart quite a bit more (at least enough for my tastes).

Something that nobody here has pointed out. I could maybe understand why you would think that the DNC would want to make the process slow, but Buttigieg has just as much reason as Bernie to want the Iowa Caucus to run smoothly. His campaign only existed on the hope that he would win last night, and if he doesn't create any momentum out of Iowa he is DOA for super Tuesday. Anyone making up these theories hasn't thought things all the way through, clearly.

Oh, for sure, I'm not saying this approach won't work for you. I'm saying that if you're using that approach you're being using strategies designed mostly by abusers, that are inherently abusive (now, whether you are an abuser depends on whether you realise that and whether you stick to it after realising that), and that you _shouldn't do that_.

> You're not going to befriend everyone you talk to, but you're not going to befriend anyone you don't talk to.

I don't have to try and befriend everyone I meet. There are social contexts specifically designed for making new friendships, and quite helpfully they usually also provide a framework for approaching new people. And between meetup.com, OkCupid, interest-specific subreddits, Discords and Twitter, it's easier than ever to find should spaces that are tailored to however specific your social needs are. There's zero excuse for cold approach.

Driving ability is almost the perfect case study for Dunning–Kruger effect. Most drivers think they are better than they really are.

So you maybe right in that really good drivers may be safer when in control of the car, but it won't be the case for people who think they are good. And if you leave individual drivers a choice, you can expect to see a lot more of the latter. And, to follow up on groby_b, they are going to ram your car and there will be nothing you can do.

In the end, unless we have a system to reliably select the highest skilled drivers, and making sure they are at the peak of their ability, autonomous cars will be safer for everyone.
