Yup, using MFP is one of the best changes I've ever made in my life.

Unless I'm missing something, it's only for 2 years after purchase?

"The legal guarantee covers any defects presumed to have existed at the time of delivery and which become apparent within a period of two years. However, the crucial period is the 6 months after you bought your product:"

So I'm assuming the bulk of older phones would no longer be covered?
Exactly, certainly not if we are talking used cars in the Internet era. These dealerships are not pricing cars for $7k+ over auction price unless they rebuilt the title because it's going to show as a horrible deal on any internet site.

I was pretty much laughed out of two dealerships for trying to get $2k off sticker and they refused to negotiate much.
So you think that companies don't care what candidates might tell their peers...

But at the same time they're sponsoring meetups and conferences, hosting coding contests, sending people to career fairs, buying huge ads on job platforms to advertise company culture, just to get people to apply?

I can't talk about all of Europe, but here in Linz a lot of companies struggle to get candidates, and they spend a lot of money and effort to get a good reputation as an employer.
I'm so glad to hear that I'm not the only person this is happening to. I had to switch to Firefox for debugging as Chrome would lock up completely on breakpoints.
Surprisingly the monoprice 600700 pencil condenser with a hypercardiod capsule works really well for this, and it’s way cheaper than mid range shotguns.
High end/powerful is very subjective when talking about macs
In the US probably too, but the customer would have to sue the dealer to get what he paid for.
There’s definitely a big difference once you’ve actually watched one. You can create a new profile and see it for yourself. Or at least, this was the case the last time I attempted to verify.
The Swiss watch industry hasn’t gotten subsidies? You might want to check your history.

And the US health insurance industry isn’t buying watches in any great numbers (yet.) The US health insurance interest isn’t driving the demand, the demand is driving the interest.

It's not, but a lot of people got really mad, so it makes the politicians look good to their constituents if they do something punitive to satisfy the mob's anger.
I actually tried Safari last night (tried it for a day or two a couple of months ago as well). Is it just me or has everything about the extensions changed? They're only available from the App store? I tried to install Bitwarden but got sent to download the desktop app.

And overall the extension landscape looks highly bleak. What are the recommended adblockers? I found Ghostery Lite (which according to the reviews seems quite disappointing) and a number of paid adblockers...

From my test some while back there at least seemed to be a decent number of extensions out there but now it's different. Why?

Edit: The Bitwarden extension seems to have been installed automatically along with the desktop app.
You can mitigate this by purchasing something pre-owned certified or equivalent. When I bought my used Volt, I had to bring in a print out that indicated the particular car was indeed already listed as certified for them to honor it, but it ended up being useful when the Transmission Control Module went out and needed to be replaced.

I got the impression they list everything as pre-owned certified on the website and then try to up-charge people for it in person, without actually doing any of the supposed checks. On the other hand, if you can get it the warranty should help with any gremlins in the first few years.

Your comment is very good. You’ve basically listed the modern British class system: upper, middle, lower/working. There are some additional subtleties to it (education and the arts can bend boundaries a bit), but that’s the gist. Outside London, margins between such classes are somewhat smaller; in London they are magnified.

In the end, it’s a country that still has an official aristocracy. There is a reason for that.
There are lots of good alternatives. I've been bootstrapping my alternative tracker since 2011. Started as a hobby project back then but now at $2M ARR and growing.
Even if engineers aren't inherently valued in the UK as much (and I agree with this and it's due to extremely deep-rooted social class reasons) why don't the hard facts of competition push up salaries?

The founder may not want to pay their engineer more (the founder doesn't even recognise the engineer's tie, for a start) but there are only so many competent people so if you want one you just have to put your hand in your pocket even if you don't like it.

I absolutely cry when I see people looking at £28k starting salaries in the UK. People don't know how bad they have it compared to what they could be getting. They should take remote jobs with Canadian or American companies and forget about British companies, I'm afraid.
Only about half.

I absolutely disagree.

These phones were unusable with the throttling. I switched to Android because my iPhone 6 was unusable less than 3 years after getting it.

This is like saying that an appropriate fix for a car manufacture is to limit the maximum speed of a car to 25 miles per hour. It breaks so many use cases that the car becomes worthless.
So many deformities in fake space, so tragic. Is there a fake charity I can donate to to stop this horror?

Events in Europe and North America are all going ahead as usual as far as I've seen. (I just got back from a few fairly large events in Central Europe.) The one you mention does have a notice on its site that basically such says there will be doctors available at the conference.
There are also lots of levels of power of attorney. It can be as limited in scope as to a single bank account with limitations. So I question whether this was full on power of attorney or some limited scope that we are lacking details of.
It stopped being listed as having guaranteed updates but it already has gotten at least one more update since then. Per https://developers.google.com/android/images#sailfish there's been an update for the Pixel in December 2019.

It is missing the Jan & Feb 2020 updates that the Pixel 2 received, but it's plausible the Pixel 1 could still get a patch for this critical issue.
This car was a lemon, sent back to Tesla, sold via auction to a normal brick-mortar dealer, who then sold to the end consumer.

The original Monroney sticker had FSD listed as an included option (just like upgrade wheels, or a tow package on a truck). The car delivered with it installed. The car made it through several changes in ownership (orig buyer -> Tesla -> dealer -> final consumer) with it enabled, as indicated on the original spec list. Nobody other than Tesla ever had any reason to believe the option was not included - because, IN FACT, it was included. Until Tesla decided they wanted to repossess it after the fact.

This would be akin to Chevy deciding after sale that the upgrade wheels weren't actually supposed to be installed, and coming to your house in the middle of the day to remove them.
This was a big debate in the 90s. The "industry" headed it off at the gates (partly thanks to communication media such as ... usenet :) It might resurface, but I expect to hear the same arguments used against it, all over again. I'd be suprised if it ever came to pass in the same sense as PE requirements.

In addition to the background, if you can see earrings, that is usually a giveaway. The generated faces seems to always have different earrings in each ear. Also glasses disappear into the skin, and ears are often different on each side and/or distorted.

Yeah, refills kinda suck, and I do miss prefills, but the concession had to be made.

I don't know if there's a prefill option out there that I missed, but I couldn't find one.

I just get a big bottle of whatever level I'm on, and a big bottle of the same flavor in 0mg, and mix them as needed into a smaller, pocket-sized bottle. You'll want to get a bottle with a thin tip, so it will fit into the refill hole, like one of these:

Amusingly(?), pinned tabs being in all windows is one of the most annoying things to me about Safari.

I use them in Firefox/Chrome to signal that they're tabs I definitely want to always keep open, and which I expect to open a lot of other tabs from. It's a whole different use case from wanting them available on every window.

Clinton won the popular vote against Bernie (16,914,722 vs. 13,206,428) by a larger margin than she won the popular vote against Trump (65,853,514 vs. 62,984,828), despite fewer total votes due to Sanders dropping out from such a walloping. The fact that you thought otherwise is the kind of thing only a disinformation trolling campaign can achieve.

It at least theoretically entitles you to a free upgrade to the newer self driving computer, which then activates the new features.
At some point you'll probably want to replace it with something newer. The distinction becomes very important when you sell it. If buying a used Tesla means features are disabled then the resale value is going to be lower.

This article sounds skewed against TikTok. Was the police never contacted by anyone about the suicide? Maybe the police were already contacted? This is a big question that the article leaves out that makes it sound like it's only TikTok who is responsible for calling the police.
We're talking about a suicide, so there is possibility for physical harm.

(I'm not at all saying TikTok should be responsible for this person's suicide. Only that moderation of online platforms can have real physical consequences. When moderators respond appropriately to posts involving suicide, stalking, and child pornography, they can help prevent abuse in the physical world.)
Apple TV+'s Mythic Quest Is 'Silicon Valley' but for Game Devs
there's certainly a place for applications that require continuous updates, I actively work on one, but I don't think "fire and forget" style is inherently bad either. I built one (well, multiple, but I was personally fond of that one) and inherited one when someone left the company and I haven't had to touch the first since a minor update shortly after release and the second I never had to touch at all. Both still functioning and doing what they were intended to do.

I don't think a client/group requiring a set and forget (well, not quite forget, but to be hands off) is necessarily a bad client nor is one that wants continuous updates a good one. In some cases, it could be reversed because the set and forget client who disappears was most likely able to clearly define requirements as they needed them and they had the foresight to include anything that might come along ahead of time (or probably more likely, their use case is rigid and doesn't change).
Yes indeed, for the lossless mode (based on tech by the same author) we're seeing about 45-82% of GIF size, and 60-80% of (A)PNG depending on content.
Tech workers and tech company engineering divisions must be a decent chunk of all MBPs sold. And then there’s the pro video people. Where is that assumption coming from? Compiling, rendering, transcoding are all pretty heavy workloads.

Is Apple ignoring this? Or just assuming these workloads are short/bursty enough to not worry about sustained utilization?
That's really unfortunate. They can be incredible meetings to fix problems, work on your career, grow skills, give and receive feedback, and a lot more.

Unfortunately though a lot of managers don't know what to do as you suggest, but some of them can be shown a better way.

Putting some things you want on the agenda is a great way to make that change. Then you can take the temperature to what they will be open to.

Working backwards though, this is why you should interview your future manager really hard before signing on to the job...to make sure you have one of those 25% that are good (based on your number)
What about every other phone that also does this? My Moto G5+ from 2017 still gets the same battery life that it did when I bought it, which is basically impossible, but the performance is a fraction of what it was. If you're going to focus on this issue, make it a law and go after everyone.
By that logic, any change would be considered "breaking" because people will expect that the change also exists in older versions.

If you’re the only one writing it and you’re the only one running it, it’s probably fine. But if I’m putting a file out there that will only work in 3.7, it’d be nice if any potential users of that file would get a good error message if they try to run it on 3.5, rather than wrong results.

I could potentially assert a version, but do I really want to do that each time I wrote something that might be used somewhere else?

And yes of course I could add a line of documentation, but there is a 100% chance I’d still get bug reports from people on 3.5.

And this change would be fine even if Python did.
If by "write kernel/bare-metal level code" you mean blinking an LED, sure. Writing low level doesn't have to do anything with C or any language for that matter. It requires a deep understanding of the architecture that you're writing code for. Junior JS devs don't have enough experience or the skills to do that.

It was a couple of years ago, November of 2015 according to my notes. I was involved with the Hungarian language course for a while, but there were some in-group political problems and I ended up getting shut out rather abruptly.

The Duolingo course builder is a rather slick UI, but I found it brittle. Like many UIs, it does what it does, and then it stops. There's no direct access to the underlying database, meaning you can't do any kind of search on problem phrases for instance. You can't do any bulk updates of any kind. All you can do is navigate through the course structure to the sentence you want, and use a custom editor to make changes to it. Very clunky.

They have some kind of mechanism in place to flag sentences where learners have problems, but as I wasn't involved in Hungarian after it went live, so I don't know how they work.

There were systematic problems with the course material (it had been adapted from the English course for Hungarians), and I finally ended up writing a spider that walked the course and recorded the data in my own database just so I could do queries against it to highlight where certain issues needed to be fixed.

My #1 takeaway, and this would automatically be addressed in an open-source context, is that the database has to be exposed. I'd be happiest if the canonical course were actually defined in a document that had an independent existence from the live database entirely and could be version controlled. (Obviously multimedia resources would have to live outside that document, but you could have a descriptor for each one and use it within the course definition.)

By all means provide a builder UI to smooth the process - but at volume, you'll want some way to just work on things in text or you'll end up buried in technical debt. You might even want to model the builder on a Wiki, for instance - a set of documents that could be considered a single book made up of articles.

My time is limited (isn't everybody's) or I would promise you the moon in terms of cooperation on this project - I've wanted to see it for a long time. I hope I'll have the time at least to use the platform and provide some constructive criticism.

I got a lot of friends who really don't care about their privacy, they download every app, sign up for whatever, etc.

The way I explain to them about privacy, especially if they are left leaning, is by giving them example of 2016 elections. I explain how companies can use bits of info scatter around the web to create a detailed profiles of them. Then they can run different experiments on groups of similar profiles/people and see what message will trigger them to take an action. The action might be to buy coffee or to vote for someone.

Some people say that they have free will and they will not be easily influenced. Which leads to different debate but I recommend them that they watch "The Great Hack" documentary.
